Operative words
HEREBY AMENDED TO READ - Additional local restrictions may apply: Nothing in this proclamation or in the Secretary of Health's face covering order prevents any other individual or entity from imposing face covering or other restrictions or requirements in businesses or other locations within the scope of their legal authority. In addition, local government agencies, officials, and authorities and landlords are prohibited from preventing or prohibiting any person or business or other entity in their jurisdictions and tenants in their properties, respectively, from imposing face covering requirements on or requiring proof of vaccination from any worker, customer, or other person and are further prohibited from taking or threatening to take any adverse action of any kind against any person or business or other entity or tenant for imposing face covering requirements on or requiring proof of vaccination from any worker, customer, or other person.
Enforcement
Notes
Preemption in reverse: the State barred local governments from limiting business-imposed mask and vaccination-proof requirements and preserved local authority to impose more.
